Hello, and welcome my name is Tasha; a Clinical & Sports Massage Therapist, Pilates Practitioner & Nutrition Coach.

How it all began:

I started out over 35 years ago as a Fitness Instructor teaching Gym/Aerobics/Step/Circuit.  I competed in the ANB British Finals in the Athletic Figure category. I then qualified as a PT and worked part-time for many years; alongside my accountanc and credit management full time job.

My sporting background is well-founded from my early 20's competing in weight training and cross-country running. 

I was a local club runner for many years and enjoyed ice skating, cycling, snowboarding, climbing mountains and much more.  Over the last four years, I have competed in Triathlon, from sprint to 70.3 Ironman.

Why I became obsessed with Sports Massage:

Back in 2014 even though I was really fit and healthy I started to suffer badly from Lower Back Pain and Sciatica after many months of pain, I had to undergo spinal surgery to remove L5/S1 disc that had herniated and that was trapping my nerve and causing the pain; apparently, wear and tear of many years training. 

This is when I became obsessed with Sports Massage; ensuring that I recovered completely and was able to return to Triathlon.  I had lots of Sports Massage Therapy whilst studying for the ITEC L3 qualification and thankfully I am now fully fit and back in training.  I still get niggles but Sports Massage Therapy helps to keep them at bay. 

I qualified as a Level 4 YMCA HNC Sports Massage Therapist in 2018 and on the more Holistic side of massage, I am qualified to use Hot Stones, whereby I use volcanic rocks imported from Europe; which are so relaxing and fantastic to use.

Training and Qualifications:

I have been studying to increase my knowledge and experience as a Sports Massage Therapist, for over 9 years, completing diplomas, certificates and CPD courses.  I am highly qualified and insured. I have recently qualified as a L3 Pilates Practitioner and L4 Nutrition Coach.

I have recently enrolled in a 3-year BTEC L6 Advanced Clinical Massage Therapy course.

The Jing Method™ of Advanced Clinical Massage is a unique outcome-based system for addressing chronic musculoskeletal pain through a tried and tested fusion of advanced soft tissue and massage techniques from both East and West. I'm already using the techniques to help my clients and they were very please with the outcome.
